General THPS(X) / Re: Why haven't the Thug Pro devs used Thps3s Level mod files

« on: December 25, 2016, 12:53:14 pm »

The THUG Pro team will not be giving out tools to people with no experience and no previous track record of any sort of intelligent attempt at THPS modding.  It's been suggested that we have a public friendly level tool to make bringing in custom levels easier in the future, and that is something I'd hope to see happen.

The model/asset team has been working very hard on our own tools for new levels because we want to do a great job of bringing new things in.  We don't want to do some half baked job with non-working objects/features and graphical errors. 

Speaking directly on the files in Levelmod, many models have broken geometry, (Mall, Downtown) and we're not necessarily wanting to include the 2X versions of the levels for mainline THUG Pro updates.  Some have weird textures or level differences (Crane Drop).

meaning they could very well easily port the files from level mod, and fix any errors in the process

If any of this could be done "easily", we'd have all the maps by now. Obviously everyone wants new maps, and the devs acknowledge it, but it takes time. I suggest you try porting some maps and see how well they work.

 

If I was given the tools, and was taught how to use them, I could probably port maps very easily

Lol

This is also an intelligent post.

THPS3's level format differs from the THUG2's.

Also, Levelmod's ports are imperfect, and THUG PRO developers quite clearly want perfect ports, based on the work done on the THPS3 levels. In my opinion, THUG PRO team did a better job porting those levels to THUG2 engine than Neversoft did.

Thanks for the intelligent follow up.

General THPS(X) / THUG Updated Compatibility Release

« on: December 20, 2016, 06:47:36 pm »

Using the executable from the Pinecone Research Study trial uncovered a few months ago, a few of us have teamed up to release the executable with some changes to make it run the full THUG game.

This executable does not look for the game installation discs (no-cd) and is Windows 7+ compatible (no longer requires you to disable security updates).  We have also made it use a dll that will no longer give connection refused messages. Enjoy Online Play again!

To use, place THUG.exe and patch.dll in your THUG game directory.
If you want to play on Mac or Linux through Wine, you can just copy the whole game directory from an installed game and place these files in.
Download: https://mega.nz/#!NUd3WQbJ!6HjO8lGXOJoiCfBl9sT-lTymyXbSpJmgBU82KH8unBc

I've also made some additional files:
Add Camera Swivel Lock Numpad "." Registry Key: https://mega.nz/#!cI01RRiC!0oQE6sL4iWHgefd0fblUoyFY-bEvp-sHXv6N3li4EWI
Xbox 360/One Xpadder Controller Setups: https://mega.nz/#!IUNXmKaY!vnYXEFdWm_e2aP6wNrsbeG9kh4MWyTy9wwcJq0_98hU

Enjoy!

Hm, I don't normally use discord.

Could you explain what controller you use and present screenshots of the launcher gamepad binding tab and then your in-game in-air setup menu?

General THPS(X) / THUG Pro 0.5.0.71

« on: October 30, 2016, 11:38:54 pm »

THUG Pro 0.5.0.71

Additions/Improvements:
Improved Xbox 360 / Xbox One controller support (The game launcher is no longer required to be ran prior to game start for the trigger split to initialize, and the button mapping through the launcher for Xbox One controllers is now recognized on Windows 10)
Bluetooth PS3 controllers under Wine on Mac and Ubuntu now supported in the game launcher
Wine support for THUG Pro & Launcher - launcher now works and game installation no longer hangs on completion
Added L1 + L2 and R1 + R2 spin setup options*
College - Removed invisible object above level (bigger airs)
Moscow - The yellow government building is now wallrideable, and the snowmen have been restored
Kyoto - The Neon Signs no longer disappear online after being smashed, and more rail objects are taggable for Graffiti
 
Fixes:
Fixed Spin Lag time
"Delay Dropdowns from Grinds" has been renamed to "Spin Lag for Drop Downs" and it has been fixed (was not working in the last update)
Land Pivot has been restored to be linked to manuals only
The listing of custom parks in the level select menu has been fixed

*Known Bug
There is a known issue with the two new shoulder rotate options and 180 spin taps being enabled - you will spin indefinitely if pressing one of the buttons.  We recommend turning off Spin Taps if you are going to use the R1 + R2 or L1+L2 spin setups.
If you crash while using an Xbox 360/One controller, you may need to re-assign your triggers in the launcher.

Hope you enjoy this update, sorry about some of the bugs that were introduced in the last update.. but finally I can use my Xbox One controller with ease! Does it get any cozier.. (Thanks %gone) 

Special thanks to all members of the team, and especially the players.  I hope to play you online!

Hey Skater1014.  While there are legitimate uses for the viewer, whether it be for video recording or for any fun stuff, we removed it because of the abuse it enables.  Which is the reason why we have disabled the viewer to revamp it.  To not make the abuse easily available it's appreciated that you took down the download.

Has not been decided upon at this time.

« on: May 06, 2016, 02:22:31 pm »

Thanks for the suggestions, there's some good ideas in here.

That being said, adding new pieces is a time consuming process, and every piece has to be made sure to fit the dimensions of the editor cell. 

We will continue to add pieces, and we are just about to unveil a new Hell editor theme with related pieces.  However, we are not specifically looking for cap piece suggestions at this moment.  We want to spend time focusing on other areas of the project as well.
